Diazoalkanes react with a bis(phosphino)borate copper(I) source to generate [Ph_2BP^(tBu)_2]Cu(η^1-N_2CR_2), [Ph_2BP^(tBu)_2]Cu(CPh_2), and [Ph_2BP^(tBu)_2]Cu–N(CPh_2)(NCPh_2)

Abstract

[Ph_2BP^(tBu)_2]Cu–L complexes react with diazoalkanes to generate structurally unusual η^1-diazoalkane adducts, a terminal carbene, and an η^1-azine adduct.
